Watch Man Utd star Cristiano Ronaldo miss awful penalty after firing wide from 12 yards in FA Cup clash vs Middlesbrough

HE’S usually faultless from 12-yards, but even the great Cristiano Ronaldo is guilty of the occasional error.

After Paul Pogba was felled inside the area during the FA Cup clash against Middlesbrough Ronaldo stepped up from the spot, only to MISS the target completely.

Goalkeeper Joe Lumley wasn’t even forced into making a save as CR7 dragged his effort wide of the mark as he attempted to open the scoring at Old Trafford.

The celebrations from the 9,000 travelling Boro fans didn’t last long though, with Jadon Sancho opened the scoring less than five minutes later.

United though should have been ahead even before Ronaldo’s penalty miss.

Jadon Sancho could only hit the bar a matter of minutes into the game with the entire goal at his mercy.
